Pimobendan is an inhibitor of phosphodiesterase 3 (PDE3; IC50 = 0.32 ?M for guinea pig cardiac enzyme) that is selective for PDE3 over PDE1, PDE2, and PDE4 (IC50s = >30 ?M).{46297} It is also a calcium sensitizer, decreasing the concentration of calcium required for half-maximal contractile force in isolated, skinned porcine ventricular fibers. Pimobendan increases the force of contraction in electrically-stimulated isolated guinea pig papillary muscles with an EC50 value of 6 ?M, indicating positive inotropic effects.{46298} It increases survival time in dogs with congestive heart failure due to myxomatous mitral valve disease when administered in combination with angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors and furosemide (Item No. 17273).{46299} Formulations containing pimobendan have been used in the treatment of heart failure in dogs.
